Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I tell you if I tell you now
Will you keep on will you keep on loving me?
If I tell you if I tell you how I feel
Will you keep bringing out the best in me?

You give me, you give me the sweetest taboo
You give me, you give me the sweetest taboo
You give me, you give me the sweetest taboo
That's why I'm
That's why I'm in love in with you

You give me, you give me the sweetest taboo
You give me, you give me the sweetest taboo
You give me, you give me the sweetest taboo




That's why I'm
That's why I'm in love in with you
